I still believe in it. Until the very end. 💜🩵

Personally, I don’t see any argument that forces TJ to escape his prison sentence in order for the story to continue. [5]

Do we actually need TJ to be active in order to get answers to these? In my opinion: no. Harry has the necklace and earrings. Big Teddi could clarify things. Chiwoon and others know about TJ’s actions. [4]+

>The earrings/necklace >The pact with Big Teddi >Things Ian still doesn’t know (both positive and negative) [3]+

-He "owes" Jo his life -Harry’s comment that his daughter would be better off -For me, these two points have something in common. They are not questions that require an answer or further action. Rather, they serve to highlight TJ’s positive character. [2]+

Points that remain open regarding TJ, and the question: Does TJ need to act (not be imprisoned) for them to be answered? 🤲🏼💛🥀 [1]+

💜 BONUS – IAN: Honestly, I would like it better if Ian’s “orange moment” were triggered for example by Chiwoon or Toby rather than by TJ or Jo.

But that’s just my interpretation. It’s still possible that Doyak is holding something back that will allow TJ to grow even further beyond himself.!🤲🏼💛 [13]+

TJ - EXTRA💛: I really like TJ’s character development. And in my opinion, it might actually be a step backward if he actively started driving the plot again. [12]+

That doesn’t mean I’m definitively saying Jo/Ian is confirmed. But in my interpretation, there is far more room and hope for that direction. 🩵💜[11]+

4. My personal way of reading and interpreting the story: from my perspective, there are clearly more passive hints pointing positively toward Jo/Ian than toward TJ/Ian. [10]+

3. While TJ feels complete in my view, Jo and Ian are not there yet. The “orange moment” and an honest confrontation—something TJ already had—are still missing for them. [9]+

That’s why, to me, it would actually argue against TJ/Ian if Ian were to return to him already at this point. [8]+

Let’s assume Ian leaves Jo now in order to be with TJ—what would then happen with Ian’s revelation? There’s a strong chance that it would push Ian in the opposite direction from the one he’s taking beforehand. [7]+

2. Reducing the endgame to the idea that TJ has had his revelation and Ian has (for now) rejected Jo shows, in my opinion, that people aren’t really looking at the bigger picture. [6]+

If TJ’s journey were to end now and he ended up in prison, it wouldn’t harm his character. On the contrary, it would simply bring his development to a rounded conclusion. [5]+

TJ could still have an influence on Ian’s “orange moment,” but I actually hope that Ian’s moment won’t be triggered by either TJ or Jo. [4]+

Some questions remain open, but none of them require TJ to stay in the story, nor are they questions that necessarily need answers. They serve more to underline his character. [3]+

1. With the “orange moment,” which I interpret as a revelation, TJ is not only ahead of the other two in terms of character development—he already feels complete to me. [2]+

TJ/Ian Endgame – confirmed? 💛💜🥀 Here are a few points that, in my interpretation, speak against it: [1]

For me these two scenes are the key moments when TJ’s and Jo’s love turns in a way. Furthermore, these places are also connected to Ian himself. He leaves TJ and ends up in a hotel. He leaves Jo behind and seeks shelter at the campsite. [5]
